Mansfield Past and Present by The Old Mansfield Society

Mansfield has seen many changes over the year. Influenced by its industrial past of coal mining and textiles, it still thrives as a market town. Drawing from The Old Mansfield Society's vast archive, this book presents historical images of Mansfield paired with the same scenes in more recent years, to highlight the changes that the area has seen. With an introduction and informative captions, will be of interest to anyone curious about the area's history.

In 1919, a year for reflection and hope after the First World War, a group of Mansfield folk created a society to record the memories and heritage of the town. The Old Mansfield Society has been working ever since, preserving and presenting the past of this ancient community. Its collection of Mansfield history resources is now extensive, including thousands of photographs, documents and other items.
